For this brief I have decided to make book of recipes for cakes and desserts. I have done some research to try and get some inspiration for my recipe book and an idea of the tone of voice and demographic I am going to aim for with my book.
I really like these images from the Ikea recipe book shot by Carl Kleiner. I have never seen this style of photography within a recipe book before and think it is a really interesting way of showing the ingredients.
This recipe book has displayed the ingredients in a similar way to the Ikea recipe book, I really like the idea of showing the ingredients visually as I think it makes it easier when baking rather than having to keep reading the ingredients. I also like images showing different steps and the playful fun style of photography used.
I like the binding method used within this book as it allows you to take out pages and to add your own recipes which is a nice idea. I had thought about binding my book in a way that allows you to take out pages of the book to make it easier when following a recipe so this is a binding method I could perhaps use for my book to achieve this. It is also water resistant so if you spill anything on it when cooking you can wipe it clean.
I really like the style of illustrations used within this recipe book although I think it may be a little difficult for me to achieve something like this in the time we have for this brief. I also like the style of photography and the step by step images as I think this is really useful to know what it should look like through each step if you've never baked that recipe before.
